Hello,

Another question for you gurus in Kirupa:

I wan to create a photoalbum using “attachmovie”, “for loop” and “loadMovie”, and with the help of fellow kirupa gurus, the result of my script is below:

////////////////////////////////////////////////////

var previewWidth:Number = 60;  
var previewHeight:Number = 70;  
var space:Number = 10;  
var columns:Number = 5;  
for (var i=0; i\<25; i++) {  
var x:Number = (i%columns)_(previewWidth+space);  
var y:Number = Math.floor(i/columns)_(previewHeight+space)  
this.attachMovie(“thumb”,“thumb”+i,i,{\_x:x, \_y:y});  
//////////// loading pictures into the attachmovie ///////////////////  
this[“thumb”+i].loadMovie(“00”+i + “.jpg”);  
this[“thumb”+i].\_xscale = 10;  
this[“thumb”+i].\_yscale =10;

```
  this["thumb"+i].onRollOver = function(){

```

trace(‘its working!’);  
};

}  
function traceName():Void {  
trace(this.\_name);  
}

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////

The above script is able to show all the thumbnails of my photos. However, the:

[COLOR=red] this[“thumb”+i].onRollOver = function(){  
trace(‘its working!’);  
};[/COLOR]

is not working … tried n tried, no avail.

Please Help!!!

Thanx !!!
